6. Three basic types of learning styles:  Visual- People learn by seeing what they are learning (see/imagine/pictures)  Auditory- People learn well when information is presented through music. (hear/listen/sounds)  Kinesthetic-Movement and physical activities help the people learn. (touch/move/experience)
